Re: Flopped set - Line Check.

Should we be concerned about the fact that he 3 bet the flop, we called, and now he bets into us when a seemingly harmless 8 hits the turn?

I like how hero played the flop, but villian's lead...

Re: 20/180 TT gets 3 bet preflop

Yeah I had a feeling I messed this one up pretty much as soon as I pushed the all in button. I thought he might have a slightly wider range because he was 3 betting OOP, so he might be raising a...

20/180 TT gets 3 bet preflop

$20/180 from tonight. I have been playing fairly TAG the entire tournament, picking my spots pretty well. I picked a not so hot spot at this table about 3 rounds ago, trying to pick up the blinds...

Re: Stars $4/180 - shove or just call?

Yeah I shove here. I think JT raises on the turn, if not the flop.

I was just wondering if I had lost value by failing to fire a third time, but I guess I'll be more careful next time.

Re: PS $11 20K in the money, 4 4 with blinds coming fast.

This is an easy fold to me. Even though the tournament is in shove anything mode, MP1 has a good size stack and is raising from early to mid position. He'll have irresistable odds to call you as...

Re: is this the type of blind flops you like to bet at?

I'd complete here but I don't think I'd lead out. If you want to continue in the hand I don't think I mind check/calling depending on how the action turns out.

Re: 88 vs a few limpers

The reason I don't shove here is because it pretty much turns our hand face up, does it not?

Re: 2nd pair in unraised pot

He's limping on the button with 11 BBs, which makes me very suspicious. But I still think we have to consider his range pretty wide. When he bets 600 on the flop I think we lose most of our FE...

Re: 88 vs a few limpers

I think stack sizes are a little awkward for a raise that serves a purpose here. If I didn't look at your stack I would say raise to 2500-2800 but then that puts over 1/3 of your stack in the...

Re: PS 50/50 very early suspicious raise....what to do?

When you say you can't see him doing "this" with anything less than AQ, do you mean min-raise? He could be min-raising with a lot of hands because the SB and UTG have to call the whole 1k. There's...

Re: is stealing blind here pos ev?

I agree I don't think this is a good steal opportunity because of the SB, but how much do we have to consider the BB in this hand? If he sees us raising light and the SB push, how often does BB...

Re: line check with gut shot turned 2nd pair on river

I think reads are important to pull off a play like this, since on the flop it looks like you're relying mostly on fold equity. Do you think you're getting paid off enough to call with a gutshot? I...

Re: [PS $4/180] I feel so weak tight: AK OOP First Level

First mistake is not 3 betting preflop yourself. Did you really want to flat call out of position and play AK in a 5 way pot and only see 3 cards? Repop it to 350-400 preflop.

As played I...

Re: Steal attempt with J8 against 5 limpers?

Thought I'd share results - I pushed and got called by UTG+1 with KQo (all others folded), but caught an 8 to stay alive.

Re: Steal attempt with J8 against 5 limpers?

Thanks for all the responses.

My thought process leaned toward pushing for the reasons registrar and Barry said. While there had been a lot of preflop raising, there were very few calls of large...

Re: flopped 2nd pair on draw board

I don't mind a call here. While I think this can be a K, it can also be a QT or 9T looking to draw cheaply to a straight.

I don't think the button will raise the turn bet - if he had a hand...

Re: AA runs into scare card on turn

I am kind of with dhillon here. If he has a straight, why bet so much? It seems like he's trying to get me to fold here.

If he has a set, he probably can't put me on a 7 given my play thusfar,...
